I've just installed SUSE 10.2, using RAID 5, on an IBM Netfinity x232 server. I created one small partition for /boot, a RAID array over 4 disks for / and a 2nd RAID for swap. I assume I could replicate the /boot partition across all 4 drives and add them to GRUB.
I think you should. Not only /boot, but also the MBR part of grub, so that you can boot from any of the four disks. I'm not sure exactly of the best manner to do this; dd could do, but it is not just a single sector, I mean, not just the mbr. And overwriting the mbr overwrites the partition table. (I assume you mean software raid, of course) - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
